Relative Stereochemical Determination and Synthesis of the C1−C17 Fragment of a New Natural Polyketide
摘要:
The challenging determination of the relative stereochemistry of a complex natural polyketide portion was achieved. After careful NMR analysis, a concise synthesis of a set of possible relative diastereomers (only 6 diastereomers out of the 32 initially envisioned) has been carried out using a common strategy based on enantioselective aldol reactions. With a high predictability, final NMR comparison established the relative stereochemistry of the C1-C17 fragment of this natural product.

Coupling of the different protected (hydroxymethyl)enynes 11a-e and 12a-c with the iodoarene 7 in the presence of catalytic amounts of Pd(PPh3)4 afforded the arylenynes 5a-e and 6a-c which were transformed into the monoprotected chiral trihydroxy compounds 13a-d and 14a,b by Sharpless bishydroxylation with >95% ee for 13a-d, 91% ee for 14b and 64% ee for 14a. A 5-step transformation of 13a led to the desired chroman derivative 3a which was cleaved to give the aldehyde 2 a known precursor for the enantioselective synthesis of vitamin E.

A highly convergent, enantioselective totalsynthesis of the aglycone of the tetrocarcins, (+)-tetronolide, is described. The synthesis highlights the use of several new methods, including camphor auxiliary-directed asymmetric alkylation and the enantioselective preparation of acyclic mixed acetals bearing chirality at the acetal center, and the highly efficient connection of the two major precursors
Highly Selective DNA Alkylation at the 5‘ Side G of a 5‘GG3‘ Sequence by an Aglycon Model of Pluramycin Antibiotics through Preferential Intercalation into the GG Step
Altromycin B and kapurimycin Ag are new members of the pluramycin family antibiotics that alkylate N7 of guanine (G) in duplex DNA at an epoxide subunit attached to the C2 position of the pyranone ring. While 5'AG3' selective alkylation by altromycin B was accounted for by selective binding to the sequence, it remained uncertain why kapurimycin A(3), which is structurally similar to an aglycon part of altromycin B but has an epoxide subunit with an opposite absolute configuration, selectively alkylates 5' G of the 5'GG3' sequence. To clarify the molecular basis for the sequence-selective G alkylation by kapurimycin A(3), we have examined the DNA cleavage sequence selectivity of an enantiomeric pair of an aglycon model of pluramycin antibiotics and calculated total energy change upon intercalation of the model into a specific sequence by means of the DFT-HF hybrid method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. Only an enantiomer with the same epoxide absolute configuration as that of kapurimycin Ag showed a remarkable G alkylation reactivity with a high selectivity for 5' G of the 5'GG3' sequence, Molecular mechanics calculations suggested that the intercalation of the aglycon model in an orientation perpendicular to neighboring base pairs is essential for the effective G alkylation at 5' G of GN sequences, and the efficiency for G alkylation is not dependent upon the sequence being intercalated. DFT-HF hybrid calculations suggested that the intercalation of the model is energetically most favorable into GG step. These results suggested that highly 5' G selective alkylation of the GG sequence by kapurimycin A(3) arises from a selective intercalation into the GG step. Stacking interaction with both 5' and 3' side Gs is a basis for the stabilization of the intercalated complex.
